can i get a picture solution, because the above is really hard to understand
Look at the central transparent area of someone’s eye, the pupil, in normal room light. Estimate the diameter of the pupil. Now turn off the lights and darken the room. After a few minutes turn on the lights and promptly estimate the diameter of the pupil. What happens to the pupil as the eye adjusts to the room light? Explain your observations.

- An aerial photograph from a U-2 spy plane is taken of a building suspected of housing nuclear warheads. When the photograph is taken, the angle of elevation of the sun is 43 degrees. By comparing the shadow cast by the building in question to the shadows of other objects of known size in the photograph, scientists determine that the shadow of the building in question is 64 feet long. How tall is the bulding?

The sidewalk surrounding the perimeter of the circular lake is crowded with walkers and runners. You then notice a runner approaching you wearing a T-shirt with writing on it. You read the first two lines, but are unable to read the third line before he passes. You wonder, ”Hmmm, if he continues around the lake, I bet I’ll see him again but I should anticipate the time when we’ll pass again.” You look at your watch and it is 5:07pm. You estimate your walking speed at 3 m/s and the runner’s speed to be about 14 m/s. You also estimate that the diameter of the lake is about 2 miles. At what time should you expect to read the last line of the t-shirt?arrow_forwardLei A = 60.0 cm at 270 measured from the horizontal. Let B = 80.0 cm at some angle .

By taking three measurements at each light intensity, the investigator could eliminate any result that did not support the hypothesis. c.
